Filter by:A fundamental strategy to improve adherence to nutritional treatment in patients with chronic kidney disease is the implementation of educational programs. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of a multidisciplinary educational program on dietary adherence, nutritional knowledge, nutritional status, metabolic control and quality of life in patients with chronic kidney disease, predialysis, peritoneal dialysis and hemodialysis. A randomized clinical trial will be carried out, in which patients who meet the inclusion criteria will be randomly assigned to three possible groups: predialysis educational intervention, dialysis educational intervention and control group. At the initial visit, the nutritional status will be evaluated by means of anthropometric parameters, screening and dynamometry, the biochemical parameters of interest will be extracted from the clinical record, nutritional knowledge and quality of life will be evaluated, and the diet will be explained. In the second visit, adherence to the diet will be evaluated and the food registry will be carried out. In the intervention groups, the educational program will begin with a duration of five months. Patients will come twice a month to the hospital to participate in the educational sessions and attend group psychology sessions. After completion of the educational program, the same measurements as at the beginning of the study will be carried out in the three groups.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the role of stellate ganglion blockade (SGB) for preserving arteriovenous fistula in hemodialysis patients undergoing major lower limb orthopedic surgery.
Objectives: To investigate the role of thromboelastography parameters (R, K, Angle, MA) in monitoring anticoagulation in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients. Subjects: Two hundred stable MHD patients. Methods: An observational study. Primary outcome: Relationship between thromboelastography parameter R Value and coagulation of hemodialysis circuit and dialyzer. Secondary outcome: Relationship between thromboelastography parameters (K Value, Angle and MA) and coagulation of hemodialysis circuit and dialyzer.
Sleep disorders are important to place among the symptoms frequently seen in hemodialysis patients. Among sleep disorders, restless legs syndrome is the most common. Restless legs syndrome, seen in patients receiving hemodialysis treatment, causes excessive daytime sleepiness and negatively affects the sleep quality of individuals.
The aim of the study is to verify the mediating effect of life of meaning and post-traumatic growth in spirituality and psychological well-being (happiness, depression).
The aim of this study is to compare effect of intradialytic NMES versus resistive training on physical measures and fatigue in HDP.
Chronic renal failure (CRF) is a chronic and progressive kidney disease caused by impaired metabolic and endocrine functions as a result of a decrease in glomerular filtration rate (GFR), the role of the kidney in maintaining fluid electrolyte balance. KRG, which has high mortality and morbidity, is defined as an important public health problem due to the fact that it also causes a great burden on health systems. Reiki is not an alternative to allopathic medicine; it is a "complementary" therapy that can be applied together with all other medical and therapeutic techniques. It has been reported that the deep relaxation created by Reiki relieves anxiety, stress and pain perception and promotes a feeling of psycho-spiritual well-being. Reiki strengthens the energy pathways and meridians, facilitates the natural process of healing. It regulates the energy systems of the body that are blocked by stress or a negative situation. Reiki, which is applied for various purposes, ensures that blood and lymph circulation continue in a healthy way, stimulates the autonomic nervous system. In this way, reiki facilitates physical and spiritual relaxation and strengthens health.
Empagliflozin is not still approved for glomerular filtration rate < 20 cc/min/1.73m2. Considering the cardiac and renal benefits of this drug, the evaluation of the safety and efficacy of Empagliflozin for heart failure dialysis patients seems to be mandatory.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness between conventional hemodialysis and hemodialysis using hemoperfusion adsorbents in renal dysfunction caused by sepsis
The study consists of two groups doing resistance exercise for the first and last two hours of the HD session. The investigators are planning to form the sample size of exercise training from 40 participants, which the investigators determined according to the power analysis the investigators have done based on the blood pressure outcome criterion. Participants who meet the inclusion criteria the investigators have set will be divided into two groups. A resistance exercise training will be given three days a week for eight weeks, with a total of 24 sessions. The number of IRCAs occurring in both groups and blood pressure values to be measured at the beginning and end of the HD session will be checked, and both parameters will be compared between the groups before and after the treatment after 8 weeks of training. Thus, the investigators aim to show how the time factor has an effect on blood pressure. In addition, muscle strength, physical performance and quality of life of participants before and after resistance exercise will be evaluated and compared between groups. The participants' blood pressure will be evaluated with a conventional cuffed sphygmomanometer, muscle strength, digital hand dynamometer, physical performance, Short Physical Performance Battery and Timed Up and Go Test, and their quality of life will be evaluated with the Kidney Disease Quality of Life-36 (KDQOL-36) quality of life questionnaire. In exercise training, sandbags will be used as resistance. In our study, which the investigators planned as a randomized controlled trial, stratified randomization method will be used to distribute the gender factor homogeneously in both groups.
